1t is o more than probable that our
spring term Of court will be deferred
until late in July. This conclusion is
reached from the fact of Judge Thomas
having left the territory for a VISIT to
his former home in Kentucky, where
he writes to a party in Deadwood that
he will not be able to convene court in
Rapid before July LIST. 1t is stated that
the Pennington and Custer county terms
will absorb the month of July, and that
he will not open court in Deadwood
before August I'd.

The Black Hills Herald is manifestly
slow to imbibe the enthusiasm which per-
yades the minds Of Rapid residents con-
sequent upon the final adjustment of
the preliminary arrangements for the
building of the Rapid City. Wyoming
and Western narrow guage railroad, as
the following supplemental extract,
taken from an article encouraging the
building Of narrow guage from Dead
wood to the Carbonate camp would
seem to indicate. Speaking of the adj
vantages which would acrrue to Dead
wood by the building Of the Carbonate
road, the Herald says:
at is a legitimate enterprise that the
interests of the country now demand
and warrant, and there is a place to start
from and a place to 20 to, and a trade
and business already established for its
occupancy and engagement, and the en-
terprlse and its promoters would not,
like the visionaristS and theorists of
Rapid, have to nose round TO find a
route or a destination, or search for
TO ssils, or construct a tlume for either
ores, metals, timber or water, to build
with, to haul or make it profitable"

Another act of the last legislature not
generally known changes the mode of
giving notice of general and special cleo
tons. A clause in the printers bill
amends section five Of chapter twenty
seven of the political code, so that it is
now made the duty of county clerks or
auditors to give a. least four weeks no.
tice of all general elections, and three
weeks notice of all special election, by
publication of the same in the news
papers designated by the county com
m%issioners to publish their official
proceedings. Heretofore the law only
required ten days notice Of special cleo

To not to move? that is the question on the

Whether It's no better to suffer the bohers and ncon-
veniences of the house now live in.
Or to take arms against the naughty landlord, who
won't do any repairing.
And by hiring the lordly expressman end them?
To move, to sleep, the first night in the house
with no beds up, and tired to death,
And by sleeping, think end the heartache at the
thousand shocks the furniture has received in
moving tbs consummation devouty to be

To sleep? perchance to dream;
Aye there's the rub of the best bedstead against the
gate bringing it in.
For in that sleep-which gives rest-what dreams
may come.

When we have shuf1ed off this mortal coil

There's the respect that makes calamity of SO long
life;
For who would bear the gibes and scorns of neigh

The oppressive landlords wrong, the proud ex-
pressmans contumely and the insoence of
servants,
When he himself might his quietus make with bare
clothes-pin?
Who would grunt and sweat under weary life Of
moving.
And the dread of something worse in the next house
we move into puzzles the will,
And frequently makes rather bear those incon-
veniences we have than fly to others know

dows.
Thus does conscience make towards of us ALL when
